About This Event
National Links Trust (NLT) and First Tee - Greater Washington, DC (FTGWDC) have partnered for this exciting new team golf event to raise money for their respective organizations and celebrate their partnership and shared commitment to ensuring a bright future for golf in our nation's capital.
This event will be held on Friday, May 19th at East Potomac Golf Links. This historic golf course is the epicenter of publicly-accessible golf in the DMV, is used by FTGWDC for programming and is operated by NLT.
NLT is currently building towards the rehabilitation of Northwest DC's Rock Creek Park Golf, which will feature a full-time home for FTGWDC's operations in the city. This partnership, as well as the shared vision of a diverse, equitable future of golf in our nation's capital, was the inspiration for this special event.
In the competition, NLT's Auxiliary Board will take on FTGWDC's Young Professionals Council for 18 holes of team golf competition. Similar to the Ryder Cup, each match between will be worth a point. In addition to the on-course competition, an additional point will be rewarded to the team that fundraises more money for their organization, so in the spirit of competition, we hope you will consider supporting Team NLT!
